 During the winter months, a trip to Siesta Key can be a bit of a pricey affair. But in the off season, it can be a nice little trip. Especially if you don't mind being back from the beach a bit and traveling in for your Gulf Experience.
Unless you have booked a beachside resort, condo or hotel room,...
Recently we went looking for an economical stay on Florida's Gulf coast. That's when we found the Bentley Boutique Hotel. A hotel at such a reasonable pricepoint always is a bit of a gamble. But when we got there - we found Bentley's to be just right.

So, earlier we talked about the SpaceX manned launch. After it was scrubbed from a mid-week affair to a Saturday, we took the plunge and decided to head to the Space Coast. I think this was one of our most impromptu and funnest trips ever.
We called an old standby, the LaQuinta Inn & Suites...
For the past few years we have tried to search out a great place to celebrate Easter. We have been to several Sunrise Services, but none have paralleled the one we attended on The Space Coast.

They only have...
Good news for us but bad news for others - the SpaceX manned launch has been pushed back. It's now set for Saturday, May 30. This means we might get a chance to sneak over to the Space Coast for this historic event.
To tell you the truth, we can hardly wait. For us,...
When looking for the best hotel in Fort Myers beach, it may be more like the best hotel for the money. We have generally stayed at the Edison Beach House. I can tell you, there's very little wrong and a lot right with that place.
This time, we decided to look around and see...
Over our last few visits, we have found there are lots of things to do in Vero Beach. So, recently we decided to return. After no small amount of research, we decided again to stay at the Prestige Hotel. Although their ocean view rooms were a bit past our pricepoint, we were able to get a room...
When it comes to a good breakfast in Vero Beach, Mrs. Mac's Fillin' Station is difficult to beat. We had our first exposure to Mrs Mac's during our initial Vero Beach getaway. but we didn't actually eat there.
